Lakes Water Quality Society

Lakes Water Quality Society (LWQS) is a community organisation which focuses on improving water quality in the wonderful Rotorua Lakes. Their activities include fostering research and education on lakes issues, and working with local and central government and community groups on restoring the lakes to health.

LWQS seeks to fix those lakes that have deteriorated and prevent the best from suffering any further harm from human activities.
